CM2-4G-GPS Quick Guide
CM2-4G-GPS plug-in module is a 2G/3G/4G cellular modem in combination with a GPS/GLONASS receiver.
The cellular modem can work in two modes of operation based on the settings in the setpoint Internet
Connection.

IMPORTANT: Any manipulation with plug-in module shall be done with disconnected power
supply to controller.
CM2-4G-GPS module setup
1. You will need a controller, CM2-4G-GPS module, antenna and SIM card with SMS and packet data
service.
Note: Make sure that your SIM supports the packet data network type you want to use. – i.e. if you
want to use the module in LTE (4G) network you have to confirm with the operator that the particular
SIM card supports 4G network.
2. Contact your mobile operator for getting packet data APN (APN = Access Point Name).
Note: Typical APN name is "internet".
3. Make sure SIM card does not require PIN code. Use any mobile phone to switch the SIM PIN security off.
4. Place the SIM card into slot on CM2-4G-GPS card.
5. Connect the antenna to Cellular module antenna connector. Use secondary "diversity" antenna if you
have troubles with signal/connection quality.
6. If you want to use the built-in GPS receiver connect also an active GPS antenna to the GPS antenna
connector.
7. Switch off the controller. Insert CM2-4G-GPS module into controller.
8. Power up the controller.
9. Select the required operation mode of CM2-4G-GPS module by adjusting setpoint Internet Connection.
10. Enter correct APN Name into the setpoint Access Point Name.
11. Adjust AirGate key in InteliConfig.
12. Wait for approx 2 – 4 minutes for first connection of the system to AirGate. AirGate will generate
automatically the AirGate ID value. Then navigate to measurement screens where you will find signal
strength bar and AirGate ID identifier.

Getting started with AirGate
1. Make sure controller has link to Internet
a. CM3-Ethernet is connected to LAN infrastructure, has an IP address and access to Internet
b. CM2-4G-GPS is connected to a mobile operator (preferably to 3G/4G network) and has an IP
address
2. Connect with InteliConfig e.g. via USB and check setpoints as follows:
a. AirGate connection = ENABLED
b. AirGate port = 54440
c. AirGate address = global.airgate.link
3. Adjust AirGate key in InteliConfig – this is your "secret key" that you have to provide always when you
want to connect to the controller via AirGate.
Image 1.2 Changing AirGate key
4. Wait for approx 2 – 4 minutes until the controller connects to AirGate. You can see the progress by
observing the value AirGate status in InteliConfig
5. When the controller is connected to AirGate it will generate AirGate ID for the controller. This AirGate ID is
the "phone number" of the controller.
Note: If CM3-Ethernet and CM2-4G-GPS are used simultaneously the assigned AirGate ID will be different
for each module, so the controller will be accessible via two different AirGate ID.

AirGate operational and diagnostic information
Object Description
Not defined Indicated while the controller is actually not trying to connect to AirGate. This is initial
value of the status.
Wait to
connect
Indicated while the controller is waiting the "repetition period" before next attempt to
connect to a node is performed.
Resolving Indicated while the controller is resolving domain name of the node to which it is
attempting to connect.
Connecting Indicated while the controller is attempting to establish TCP link to the node.
Creat sec chan Indicated while CCS encrypted channel is being negotiated.
Registering Indicated when the CCS channel has been established until AirGate sends message
"setRuntimeParams" (with any registration status).
Conn
inoperable
Indicated when AirGate sent registration status other than "Authorized" until the status
changed to "Authorized".
Conn operable Indicated when AirGate sent registration status "Authorized" until the status changed
to any other one.
Susp
AGkeyEmpty
Indicated when the service is enabled but suspended due to empty AirGate key.
Note: If you see this status message you have to adjust AirGate Key as per
instructions above.

Getting started with active e-mails
The built-in e-mail client is capable to operate with most SMTP servers, including those requiring secure
sockets and/or user login.
Preferred procedure
1. Obtain a suitable SMTP server. There are following options:
a. Use a SMTP server located inside the infrastructure where the module is to be used and ask IT
personal for the information about it and about appropriate settings.
b. Create an account in some public e-mail service like smtp2go.com
2. Adjust the setpoints as follows:
a. SMTP Server Address = < selected smtp server>:<port> (ilustration example:
smtp.company.net:465)
b. SMTP Sender Address = adjust a sender address here, which must match the selected server policy
(illustration example: [email protected])
c. SMTP User Name = <account name> or blank if authentication is not required by the server
d. SMTP Password = <account password> or blank if authentication is not required by the server
e. SMTP Encryption = <according to the server requirements>
Optional procedure
If your controller and module are connected to AirGate you may also use AirGate SMTP service. Using this
option is possible only if the controller and module are connected to AirGate.
Note: It may take up to 10 minutes after the controller/module have connected to AirGate till the service
becomes available.
1. Adjust the setpoints as follows:
a. SMTP Server Address = mail.airgate.link
b. SMTP Sender Address = adjust some e-mail address here, it must be from an existing domain and
the domain must allow sending e-mails from 3rd party SMTP servers.
c. SMTP User Name = blank
d. SMTP Password = blank
e. SMTP Encryption = NONE
Firmware upgrade
Download the newest FW of module from ComAp website (in form of PSI file or installation package)
Instal package to computer or open PSI to instal it into InteliConfig
Plug the module into the controller and power the controller on.
Open a connection with controller via InteliConfig
Go the menu Tools -> Firmware upgrade, select the Plug-in modules tab and select the appropriate
firmware you want to program into the module (in InteliConfig).
Press the OK button to start upgrade of firmware.

The firmware update process may be performed via any kind of connection including connection via the same
module in which the firmware is to be updated. The connection is reestablished again automatically when the
update process is finished.
Note: For more information see InteliLite 4 Global Guide on www.comap-control.com.

Plug-in module installation
IMPORTANT: Any manipulation with plug-in module shall be done with disconnected power
supply to controller.
Remove the back cover. To do this, press four holders which are located in corners.
After removing back cover insert the plug-in module. Plug-in module has to be inserted under holders. Start
with holders marked by symbol 1. On the controller are also arrows for better navigation. After inserting plug-
in module under holders (1) press it down to holders marked by symbol 2 which lock the module.
Insert the plug-in module under holders marked by symbol 1. Then insert the plug-in module under holders
marked by symbol 2.
After locking the plug-in module into holders, place back the back cover (small cover for connectors has to be
removed from back cover). Finally insert the small cover for connectors. Small covers are unique for each
plug-in module.
